Şu anda ABD’de hem Peugeot hem de Citroen arabaları şimdilik satılmıyor. Geçmişde Peugeot ve

Citroen arabaları satılıyordu. Renault arabaları da satılmıyor. Belki gelecekte Renault

arabaları satın alınabilecek. Bundan başka Pagani arabalarını satın almak çok zor.



In the past it was possible to buy both Peugeot and Citroen; however, starting in September of

this year, Peugeot which manufactures both Peugeot and Citroen will no longer be making cars

for the American market. Renault left the American market in the 1980s; however, there is

some discussion of Renault returning to the American market now that it has purchase Nissan

and is incorporating much of Nissan’s technology into its automobiles. Of course, it is possible

to find the rare antique Renault, Peugeot or Citroen in the United States. Also one might see an

imported vehicle that came over with its newly emigrated owner. However, these automobiles

are not nearly so widely distributed as their Italian cousins.



Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and even Alfa Romeo are all available in the United States. Of

course, these are high end, luxury sports cars, and one will not see them on every street corner.

Pagani, which has an entire year production of perhaps 12 cars, is so rare as to be unseen in most

countries. The traditional Fiat, for instance the Fiat 500, is not sold in the United States.

However, these days, Fiat owns Alfa Romeo and some percentage of most Italian car producers

so that one might argue the point.



Japan has had great success marketing their vehicles in the United States. While their might be

specific models of Japanese car that one cannot find in the U.S, all of these brands are currently

sold, and often produced, within the United States.

ABD’de bir araba satan almak için birkaç opsiyon var. Seri ilanlarda yeni arabalar, ikinci

el arabalar, otomobil bayiinden satılık arabalar, ve sahibinden arabalar bulunuyor. Çoğu insan

otomobil bayiinden ikinci el araba alır. Gene de sahibinden ikinci el araba alabilir. Bundan

başka sahibinden daha ucuz satın alınır. Yani biri otomobil bayiine güvenmez ise de

ABD’de otomobil bayii arabalara garanti verir. Tabii yeni arabaları otomobil bayiiden satın

almalı.



Sonra araba alan Amerikalar için nasıl finanse eeceği çok onemli. Bazen bir banka ödünç para (kredi) verir.

Bazen otomobil bayii kredi verir. Bazen de araba almak için insanlar para biriktirir. Genellikle

finanse etmek lağzım. Arabalar çok pahalı ve birçok insan için para biriktirmek oldukça zor. Bundan

başka hem yeni hem de ikinci el arabalar için finansman bulmak mümkün.



In the United States one has several options for buying a car. Just opening a newspaper to the

classfied section, a person can see used cars, new cars, cars to lease, cars sold by a dealer, and

cars sold by the owner. Often when buying used cars, many people choose to buy cars from a

car dealership rather than an individual. Among my acquaintances I have often heard this

referred to as a safer option than buying from an individual. However, these same people accept

as fact that buying a used car from and individual will be cheaper, and also, it is common

wisdom that dealers are trying to take advantage of the customer. New cars must be bought

from the dealership.



Financing is often the big question for Americans buying cars. Will one get a loan from the

bank or the dealership? Will one save up enough money to buy the car outright? Certainly these

are all options. For most people, especially when buying a new car, getting a loan is the only

option. Cars are expensive and few people manage to save enough to have cash on hand.

However, loans are not only used for new cars. One can also finance the purchase of a used car

if necessary.
